Dare to Do Right (Taylor)

Dare to be right! dare to be true!

You have a work that no oth­er can do;

Do it so brave­ly

so kind­ly

so well

Angels will hast­en the sto­ry to tell.

Dare

dare

dare to do right!

Dare

dare

dare to be true!

Dare to do right

dare to be true!

Dare to do right

to be true!

Dare to be right! dare to be true!

Other men’s fail­ures can nev­er save you;

Stand by your con­science

your hon­or

your faith

Stand like a he­ro

and bat­tle till death.

Dare to be right! dare to be true!

God

who cre­at­ed you

cares for you

too;

Treasures the tears that His striv­ing ones shed

Counts and pro­tects ev­ery hair of your head.

Dare to be right! dare to be true!

Keep the great judg­ment seat al­ways in view;

Look at your work as you’ll look at it then—

Scanned by Je­ho­vah

and an­gels

and men.

Dare to be right! dare to be true!

Jesus

your Sav­ior

will car­ry you through;

City

and man­sion

and throne all in sight

Can you not dare to be true and do right?
